Programme listing all papers to the conference - easst

1 WEDNESDAY 23 AUGUST 15:45 – 17:30 1 Dear EASST participants, Here is the programme of the parallel sessions of the EASST 2006 Conference, Lausanne, Switzerland, August 23-26, “Reviewing humanness: bodies, technologies and spaces.” The programme shows all sessions by day and time slot. You can follow the programme day by day by reading through the document. If you want to know when somebody is presenting his or her paper, or is in charge of a particular session, use the Find or Search function of Acrobat reader: enter the family name, and by pressing Enter, you will be taken to the particular page or pages where this name can be found – and thus you will know the day and time slot of that particular event. The precise building and rooms’ numbers of each session will be inserted in the printed version of the programme that you will receive upon arrival to Lausanne. When there is no Chair indicated for a session, we will ‘appoint’ the last person in the session as chair. If you don’t want to endorse that role, please arrange that with the other contributors directly in Lausanne before the session. If you want to have your full paper available (downloadable) for others to read before or during the conference, e-mail it to [email protected] as a Word file with your family name as file-name. Practical matters: The welcome desk of the Conference will open Wednesday morning (August the 23rd) at 9:30 o’clock. It is located in the building called « Amphipole ». To reach the desk, take the underground m1 from Lausanne, get out at « UNIL-Sorge » and follow the indications. (See the map at http://www.unil.ch/central/page2474_en.html and click on « Map of Dorigny ») All rooms are equipped with overhead projectors and beamers, but NOT with computers, so take your laptop with you.
